Equi-Pak CS Soft Instant Pad Material for Thrush

Innovative formulation combines copper sulfate with Equi-Pak to prevent and effectively treat most cases of thrush while providing durable, shock-absorbing support. Adheres to the foot and delivers copper sulfate to the sole and frog so thrush can be covered in one easy application, eliminating the need to pick out the feet and apply daily thrush medications. It requires a dispensing gun and mixing tips. Note: this product should not be used in the presence of bleeding or white necrotic tissue.

Testimonial...“I just wanted to share that I have used Super Fast to build a shoe on several horses that I have helped transition from shod to barefoot & it has helped them continue to be used and transition more comfortably as they grew out the weak / shelly wall from nail holes. I have also used Equi-Pak CS with shod horses for trail rides in rocky terrain that they were not conditioned for & they handled it wonderfully. Most recently I built front shoes & filled them with Equi-Build for a little pasofino mare recovering from founder who had long toes & miserably tender / thin soles. After applying the front shoes, she walked out with confidence & even gaited more consistently! ”

I bought this because it was recommended by my vet and farrier for my thin soled gelding. It seems to make him more comfortable, less ouchy, and I love that I don't have to always clean the mud out of his feet.

Follow DirectionsRated 5 out of 5 stars

Equi-Pac CS is great when your horse could use a bit of protection/ cushioning plus thrush control. It doesn't adhere quite as well as the black Equi-Pac, so it's doubly important to follow directions when applying this product. Best results are obtained when hoof is clean and dry as a desert!
I've used this for endurance rides & my best application was when I cleaned the hoof and lightly toasted (no burning, please!) it with a small torch (try Lowe's, Home Depot, etc.). If this method suits you, please consider your horse's opinion, and allow some training time if necessary!
Manufacturer used to say it could be applied to a barefoot horse, but I found the hoof wall needed to be grown out past the sole at least 1/8" and, more importantly, flat-soled hooves give unsatisfactory results. I took my Arabian out on a rocky/sandy endurance ride and Equi-Pac CS adhered to his cupped soles for half the ride (12 miles). However, that was long enough to be of benefit and the horse did well.
Great product and worth the fiddly extras: applicator gun, tips, etc.

My horse needs the cushion support for flat feet in the back and with the Epona shoes this is the best, least expensive way to shod my pony and keep out the thrush. If it's really wet I have to add some Thrush Buster but if it stays dry, my pony doesn't have any issues. My farrier likes it for the ease of application.
